I did not see a single soul on this TriMet MAX Red Line train going west at 8:25 a.m.
I’ll be tinkering with this when I have a moment.

I love the look on Republicans’ faces when I tell them the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program was signed into law by George W. Bush.
Chilling out for a moment while the kids play with magnetic tiles.
Turned off Fediverse sharing on Threads. No point, and it kneecaps reply controls/moderation.
We’ve got a few weeks left of the year, but I’ll post my 2024 fuel consumption “wrapped”. $188 in electricity in 7.5 months, which can be extrapolated to about $300/yr (vs $1760/yr for gas at 25mpg). I’ve driven 5383 miles. This is equivalent to 121 mpg. My wife’s ‘22 Sienna hybrid averaged 32 mpg.
Me and my son went to OMSI today to see the Exquisite Creatures exhibit.
Gave up on my crappy router and traded it in for a mesh bundle. Hardwired 3 with Ethernet backhaul, and holy moly, what a world of difference. Why I’m so stubborn and didn’t do this sooner, I don’t know.
One of the biggest downsides of POSSE is making a typo.
Detroit Lions have just set a franchise record! 🦁 🏈
It would be helpful if the popular GPS/mapping applications could detect when you’re already on a train/transit route and adjust the trip duration accordingly. The only way I’ve figured out how to get around this limitation is to put your starting point as the next transit stop.
My smile has always been a big source of insecurity. Honestly, it’s probably responsible for my severe case of RBF. I wish I’d tackled this sooner, but I’m finally in a place where I can afford to start clear aligners. Scheduling my appointment tomorrow.
Another frosty morning.
Some days, I still grieve the loss of the Grilled Stuft Burrito.
You’ve just got to wonder about some of these Southwest Portland tax bills. Are you really getting that much better public services than, say, unincorporated Washington County, for 3x the cost? No, you’re not. The answer is no.
Whenever I pass this field, I can’t help but think of the default Windows XP wallpaper. Washington County, Oregon.
I took my lunch, as I sometimes do, on Unger Road, looking east toward Mount Hood. The east wind is keeping the northern Willamette clear and cold. Morning wrapped us in freezing fog, with frost still clinging to the shadows behind hills and beneath trees, wherever the sun can’t reach.
